Daniel Janser

If you go west, go Portugal... I hear Braga is a secret hockey hot spot...

my Wild guess is this feller...

If I was not such a loyal player, I would wish to be a Predator now, because that logo is sick (in the best possible way)

There is a reason why their rags are both retired by Davos...

Seems to be a family trait considering that Smalling @Knight is listed as well...

Hey Hedge, I hope you do it like your namesake in autumn and have a good hibernation from the VHL and come back in spring re-energized and busy as ever. Take care friend.

1. Calgary is in a rut. To better the team spirit the Wrangler organize a team building event. What is it and why? 2. The Wranglers want to support a charity and ask players for a worthy cause. What is your suggestion and why? 3. The team go to a karaoke bar. Who is the first one on stage, what song do they pick and how off key do they sing? 4. The City of Calgary asks for help in making the town beautiful (again?). What task does your player volunteer for? 5. If you were a fish, what fish were you (for the purpose of this question any waterlocked creatures are considered fish (i.e. whales, dolphins, squids, jellyfish etc are viable answers) and why does that particular animal appeal to you? 6. Today I witnessed a bird of pray strike another bird. What was your highlight of the day?

you are just salty you could not even beat a bot up

graphic courtesy by Leandrofg (stats for Janser, stats for Kagamine) The VHL is approaching the mid-way mark and the Americans start to look like a playoff team. They sport a 19-8-4 record and continue to be a defensive bulwark with the lowest goals against number. Janser has started to racking up points as well after an underwhelming start into the season, a trait he seems to have inherited of his dad. The towering defender is on a 65 point trajectory for a full season and we hope that he can keep this pace. Today we will show case to games of his team for your entertainment. 0-6 In the first featured match, the Americans are meeting the Dynamo, this season's whipping boy in the European conference. A win was expected from the Northamerican representative, and they did not disappoint. New York had a field day with Davos' overburdened defence and sent them packing in a 6-0 win. It took Davis all of 2:49 in the first to score the game winning goal. This was followed up by Freddy's tenth of the season less than one and a half minute later. Both goals were scored on a feed of Janser. In the second frame, Davis raised the stakes again after nineteen seconds of play. Are freaking Joshing me? In the third Analfist with a brace and French with a marker on the man advantage sealed the deal. The three stars all went to New York players in Davis (2g/2a), Analfist (2g/0a) and Janser (0g/2a). 36W had almost a beach day with only seventeen shots fired in his direction and this may well be the easiest earned shutout in his career, Pedersen (.900) was not bad, but with the amount of attempts, it was only a question of when not if he is going to allow goals against. The Americans' special teams were not overworked in this match, as they did not draw a penalty (or rather none which resulted in a power play for Davos) and the power play was immaculate (1/1). Janser left the field with 0g, 2a, +3, 4 hits, and 1 sb Rin recorded 0g, 0a, +2 and 2hits 4-2 In the second match, the Empire State boys met an Original Eight franchise from the city Callum grew up in. In a hard fought game, the US team came out victorious. The first period was very one sided in terms of shots with the counter 14-4 in favour of the Albertan team, but balanced in goals scored, since neither team could solve the opposite netminder. In the second frame, the shot clock as well as the score board was balance as either team scored two goals. However, the Wranglers only found a gap when playing on numerical advantage, whereas Champ and Bumfist scored on even strength. In the final period, during a power play situation, Callum scored one of his rare goals. FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY attempts a shot, but same is blocked by Block (sic!), Amish picks up the orphaned disc and whips it off target. The Swiss back digs the puck out and beats Dilson on the far post for the game winner. Calgary then pulled the goalie but with 1:16 left in the game, Davis puts the nail in the coffin with a marker in the deserted Wranglers net. Analfist (1g,2a), Janser (1g/1a) and Davis (1g/1a) were given the post game honours. 36W (.949) wins the duel in with a margin over Dilson (.897). The New York special teams were a bit lack luster with 1/7 for the power play and 3/5 for the penalty killing units. There is certainly room for improvement. Janser had 1g, 1a, +2, 4 hits and 1sb to his name Kagamine was noted with 0g, 0a, +1, 1 hit and 4sb Here are the stats for Janser and Kagamine for the season: Rin: 31gp, 4g, 3a, 7pts, +5, 22 PIM, 37 hits, 51sb, 2ppg, 2gwg CGY: 31gp, 4g, 24a, 28pts, +26, 72 PIM, 85 hits, 52sb, 2ppg, 1gwg https://vhlforum.com/topic/145648-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xx-he-is-in-the-army-now/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146035-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xxi-a-busy-offseason/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146308-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xxii-an-inter-season-interview/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146571-vsn-presents-s93-vhl-preview/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146609-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xxiii-a-new-season-is-upon-us/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146757-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xxiv-a-quarter-done/ GM 224: HC Davos Dynamo vs. New York Americans (vhlportal.com) GM 233: New York Americans vs. Calgary Wranglers (vhlportal.com) 600+ words

in my experience animals can either swim or fly in order to escape wild fires... EDIT: or burrow in the ground

I genuinely almost forgot about this song and now it is stuck in my head again. thanks for that...

but were you?

welcome to European prices... a litre diesel (the more expensive fuel) is priced at around CHF 1.95/litre. Which is about CAD 2.91/litre or USD 2.15/litre or USD 8.14/gallon. On the other hand, European roads are by and large narrower a/o have less lanes and hence only a few drive cars with the fuel consumption of a pool house

Callum went to the local Wal-Mart for some grocery shopping. When he was in queue at the tiller, he noticed that there was an argument on the head of the line. He walked up to the elderly man, who was clearly embarassed that his card was rejected by the card reader and was frantically trying to find enough cash to settle the tally. People in the queue got upset and started complaining. The 'Beauty' saw the tatoo on the guys lower arm. 'Thank you for your service, sir. What seems to be the problem?' 'Apparently, my pension has not come in yet and I had unexpected expenses which kind of let me short on cash. How did you know I served?' Cal-Gary replied: 'You have the emblem of the 75th Rangers with their motto 'sua sponte' tatooed on your right arm, sir. And from the dates underneath it, I take it you were deployed to 'Nam.' Then he turned to the shop assistant: 'Ma'am, I would like to foot this veteran's bill.' He reverted to the old timer: 'Sir, if there is anything else you wish to purchase, I am happy to pay for these items as well.' The war vet was close to tears: 'Son, you do not have to do that. Give me at least your details, so I can pay you back.' 'Sir, I do this because I want to. And you have paid forward many times already, when you put your live on the line for your country.' 'I do recognize you now, you play for the Americans, do you not?' 'Yessir and proud of it, too.' 'Thanks then. God bless you, son.' 'Thank you, sir.' 4/5 uncapped

graphic courtesy by Leandrofg (stats for Janser, stats for Kagamine) The Americans have absolved twenty games in the present season and are third in the NA conference with a 11-5-4 and a two win mini streak. As in last season, the team hailing from the Empire State have one of the best back rows in the league, only out-performed by the defending champions D.C. Dragons by the statistical insignificant margin of one goal against. On an individual level, it appears that Janser is on the often quoted sophomore slump, as he has focussed on his leadership skills more than any physical traits, which may have been premature. However, the team does better than last year and looks like a lock for the playoffs, albeit it is still a long way to go. People close to the Swiss back know that he is not too much concerned about personal records, unless they become a liability for his franchise. And one could reasonably argue that while his offensive stats have suffered compared to his rookie campaign, his defensive stats have not. To the contrary, his +/- rating is much better than last year's and he is a less frequent guest in the sin bin. The regression in hits dished may have to do with a more aggressive forward group, chief amongst them Champagne, who leads his team in checking. Not all young players suffer from the dreaded 2nd season curse, though. 36W has already matched last year's shutout total, has a besser save rate and the exact same GAA so far. And they do not seem to slow down at all. What is refreshing is also that the core of this team may have another 2-3 seasons of competitive play in them, if Vince Wong finds a way to manage the salary cap. It is also true that Lecavalier and the aforementioned Champagne will hang up their skates for good, but with Gretzky, the best player of all sports, times and leagues is chomping at the bit to get called up. However, there are of course question marks behind Callum's roomie and fellow draftee, Rin Kagamine's development. Since she has been in New York, she has done the bare minimum in the training sessions and her once stellar projection is now in jeopardy. Rumours have it that the 'Nagasaki Nightingale' may suffer from a severe case of homesickness, but the player as well as the New York management refused to comment on the matter. In the next four matches, the Americans will face Moscow, leader of the European conference and perennial contender under Euron Leonidas, Seattle under the experienced guidance of Blake Campbell, the Prague Phantoms under new Management of Leonard S. Kinnard and finally London with the cup winning GM Jacob Carson. All four teams are among the top four in their respective conference. Especially the game against the Bears could be groundbreaking as the teams are only two points apart and a win in regulation in this match practically worth four points. Please find the stats for 'the Beauty and the Beast' for the running campaign: Kagamine: 20gp, 4g, 2a, 6pts, +2, 14 PIM, 18 hits, 39sb, 2ppg, 2gwg Janser: 20gp, 2g, 11a, 13pts, +12, 50 PIM, 58 hits, 30sb Kindly note related articles linked below. https://vhlforum.com/topic/145455-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xix-a-rookie-season-interview/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/145648-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xx-he-is-in-the-army-now/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146035-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xxi-a-busy-offseason/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146308-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xxii-an-inter-season-interview/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146571-vsn-presents-s93-vhl-preview/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/146609-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xxiii-a-new-season-is-upon-us/ 535 words

so you did notice, eh?

Hey Vice old buddy, nice to see you back.

1. Strasmore is now all time leader in regular season hits for the Wranglers. What do you want to tell the Calgary die hard. 2. Davos and LA seem to take an early bye to the Playoffs. Which teams do you think will also suffer from an early off-season? 3. If Strasmore was a cocktail, what cocktail would he be? Elaborate your choice. 4. Why are the Wranglers the best team in NA (and arguably in the league)? 5. What will you do for the (long) weekend (if you have one)? 6. What was the first board game you played and what memories do you have?

Okay let's say Vancouver is relegated because they are bankrupt and movie in ingnominy to Quebec and change their name to 'Feux de Poubelle'?

I am glad you like it here and I concur with your assessment. When I joined the league I was half expecting it to be one of the many projects that I join with enthusiasm but will fizzle out. Now one HOF career of max earning later, I am already thinking about the player after this one.

Finally someone who heeds Ahma's @Ahma and Frosty's @FrostBeard call for a Quebec based Franchise. and I see what you did here:
